The Wolf and the Lamb
by Phaedrus
A wolf and a lamb, driven by thirst, came to the same stream. The wolf stopped upstream, the lamb much further downstream. So that scoundrel, in his insatiable hunger, saught a pretext for a quarrel.
“Why,” said he, “are you muddying the water I’m drinking?”
Fearfully, the lamb replied: “I’m sorry, but how could I do that? I am drinking the water that has passed first by you.”
And he, defeated by that fact, said, “Six months ago, you talked about me behind my back.”
The lamb replied, “But I wasn’t even born yet!”
“By Hercules, then it was your father who spoke badly of me,” said the wolf. And he pounced on the lamb and killed it unjustly
Phaedrus, I knew Aesop. Aesop was a friend of mine. And you're no Aesop.
Jeffrey, you're simply copying the statements from a well-know senator….try being original.
